Where is the image hosted? Lemm.ee doesn't let you host much if anything.

Also China want copper from Afghanistan and are negotiating with the Taliban there as part of the same scheme.

But it loads sloooooooow.

Also archive.ph and all its aliases actively sabotages DNS queries coming from alternate DNS services (eg Cloudfire, Quad9, etc). So it doesn't load at all for me.

archive.org is the proper one run by Internet Archive, aka the Way Back Machine. However you can't just type a URL for that one, as their URLs include the date and time of each snapshot, eg https://web.archive.org/web/20231124230602/https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-vows-retaliation-over-moldova-decision-join-eu-sanctions-2023-11-24/

Having everyone in court wear masks absolutely does help protect him. However, what would protect everyone better is proper ventilation systems - but that would cost businesses money, rather than passing the cost and responsibility onto individuals.

My PC was running very slow until I upgraded its RATM.

FYI you can get around Reuters paywall simply by using ublock origin. You have to go into the extension settings, tick Advanced User, click the cogs and then change FilterAuthorMode to "true". After this, you'll be able to filter different elements from domains, kind of like how umatrix does. If you disable 1st party scripts and reload the page you'll clear the paywall. The one downside is you also lose photos on the page, but they don't really add much to most stories.

Alternatively you can find the archive.org version of it, but that takes longer.

On sale on Steam right now, lowest price it's ever been. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1388770/Cruelty_Squad/

Apparently it was on the same discount before Christmas last year, but still.

Not much of a surprise given how far Boris Johnson's nose was up Russian rear ends. His election campaign advisor (and Brexit pioneer) Dominic Cummings used to live in Russia before he popped up on the UK political scene, then towards the end of Johnson's tenure he was given a tour of the UK's nuclear weapons facilities for some reason. When it came to Russia's initial invasion, the UK issued sanctions against Russian banks - except for a 28 day exemption to Russia's biggest bank. The end of this exemption coincided with Russia making their first withdrawal, and I'm not sure the sanction was ever put into place.

Done. I hadn't seen that issue before, not that I really dig into github all that much.

However the issue is somewhat outdated. We do have instance agnostic links for communities and users now, and we have since I joined, which was less than 2 weeks after this issue was posted. We may need a new updated issue that focuses on posts and comments specifically.

I don't think there's a need for a GUID, in fact it would be quite difficult - every instance would have to check with every other instance to ensure that the ID's are unique. Meanwhile, if we just have the federated host picking a number, then every other host uses that number followed by @hostinstance, we don't need cross-checking but still have unique ID's for everything.

For example, https://lemm.ee/comment/123456 would be a different comment to https://lemmy.nz/comment/123456 (as it is currently also), but the first comment could be found on the 2nd instance as https://lemmy.nz/comment/123456@lemm.ee.

Well it looks like they probably did use it though. The one guy had the code on his NVidia work laptop, and NVidia won an AI software contract over Valeo. It was in a collaborative call with Valeo (who won the hardware portion of the contract) that the code was revealed. NVidia may well be ordered to hand over their code for examination, to prove that Valeo's code isn't present in there. If Valeo get the injunction, NVidia will have to cease using that code and rewrite it entirely.
